The Hunger (Outdated)

There are multiple theories for what The Hunger can be. Some Warlocks say it was an ancient being, some say a Ghoul with powerful magic and some say it's a legendary Wendigo. One thing is for sure, whatever The Hunger is, it's a cannibalistic being of immense power who gains pleasure from hunting & eating Humanoids. Warlocks who make pacts with this Patron are not inherently evil, as reasons for making this pact can be survival purposes.

Creator's Notes: This subclass is now outdated, the current version will be linked in the comments.
